A "Susanna" figurine by Lisa Larson for Gustavsberg 1962-1965.
Height 17 cm.
Minor crazing. One hand with an irregularity/insignificant chip.
Figurinen tillverkades endast under åren 1962-1965 till skillnad mot de andra barnen i serien "Larsons ungar", vilka fanns i produktion från 1962-1979/80.
Denna figurin är ovanlig och det kan antas att den togs ur sortimentet snabbt pga den samtidigt pågående s k neurosedyn-skandalen, då kritikerna associerade figurinen med denna.
